George W Bush gave it a shot when he spoke to the NAACP on July 10, 2000. For five years in a row, Bush declined invitations to address the NAACP convention, citing nasty things they said about him. He spoke to them again in 2006. I remember him asking the audience if the black communityh was well served by being represented by just one political party.

I admire GW Bush for taking the race issue head on and boldly going where no other Republicans had gone in a long time.

Yes, I remember that. The NAALCP is not what I had in mind because as you say they are agenda hardened and have been mean for decades. But the democrats keeping them on the plantation is a message that should resonate and the public schools are a democrat/socialist bastion no one is talking about, ever. We sit wondering what happened. They took our kids and now they’re voting the way they were taught.
